-Evangelion’s final episode: I’m so happy Shinji finally realized that he wants to live even if instrumentality took place -The end of evangelion: I WANT TO DIE
Shinji choosing to live, knowing that he will get hurt but that there will be people who love him is just a powerful message and is incredibly beautiful.
I imagine most of them will become un-juiced. Think about it. Shinji and Asuka, two of the most self-loathing and damaged characters in the series decided that they could face the pain of individual existence, so I imagine most of humanity will decide the same thing.
I am not an expert but to keep it simple, in ep 25,26 ikari is given the choice of the Human Intrumentality Project. Will every human become one, or will they stay the same. But it is more a choice for shinji: will he accept himself or not. And so these 2 episodes are an intern monologue where he judges all the characters, trying to understand them. And at the end, he accepts that he is a human, that he will suffer. And this way overcome his depression, and everyone congratulate him at the end. These 2 episodes would be a little sad because there is no explanations at all about what is really happening in the real world, so Gainax made End of Evangelion which tells this part of the story. (Pls Watch it, even if the end is way darker than NGE end) And the combination of these two parts is really really cool. Pls remember, i am a big newbie about Evangelion, there are people who could make thesis about the Ep 25 26 =)
To this day, i think this was one of the only times i ever cried watching a show/movie. This ending was perfect for a show like evangelion and i thought it had a great message about loving yourself and finding who you really are and it really stuck to me as a person, because Shinji, in my opinion showed many of the flaws humans try to hide. This ending and the tips it showed to try make you change, become happier and more confident in yourself in the process. And for that reason alone evangelion has always been my favourite anime
Shinji is shown smiling in End of Evangelion when he's shouting "You betrayed me, you betrayed my feelings!" Definitely wasn't smiling in the moment, but they showed that shot anyway.
I just noticed in evangelion Kaji ,Ritsukos background has no clouds in the sky Shinji also doesnt have clouds at the beginning but his background change when everyone says congratulations and shinji accepted it by saying thank you ( i think that very moment he denied instrumentality) Edit: the lack of clouds i assume represent death and shinji denies instrumentality making him alive
@@transformalizer uh, did he smile after he choked Asuka in the middle of nowhere surrounded by orange sea with gigantic head of Rei that cracked open?
So.. He is a millennial huh? That's why he has a problematic psychological condition. Maybe he also confuse what gender he is and maybe he think about feminism and veganism and gluten intolerant and some stuff about that?
This ending is so weirdly beautiful. Like, I get if you don’t like it, it’s weird, unorthodox, whatever other adjectives you can use, I used to feel the same way about it but now I can’t help but cry over this oddly poignant ending
@@blutroyale8072 Rei was from Lilith, the origin of humans, not Adam . Also, if we follow end of evangelion movie lore, then she would have had full control over instrumentality, so it's fine for her to appear.
End of Evangelion is not an alternate ending. Its THE ending. SPOILERS . . . . . . . The anime ending is happening inside Shinji's head. The movie depicts what was going on in the real world.
whenever i feel down as a young man who still have a lot ahead of him, i always come back to this video (or even the full episode) to help me set my heart & mind on the right track and remind myself to look up ahead cuz there’s still a future out there waiting for me. congratulations me, things were not always easy but you’ve managed to survive for 21 years ❤️
This is one of my favorite anime endings, mostly because all the background of the series, so much dark and depressive, and watching all the characters saying congratulations to Shinji, was incredible
This ending is the best ending. It breaks and soothes my heart all the same- people say it makes no sense, but i've never felt so satisfied by an ending.
It doesn't make sense tho. The ending still had flaws and felt rushed. I only like it because it connects to End Of Evangelion. It's very lackluster on it's own.
This scene for some reason made me really happy when i was in kid in school now im 20yo adult and still remember this as happiest moment in my life planing to kms in a few months
he wants to live, he will still face the consequences of his actions, he will still be unhappy until he finds happiness, he will still feel pain, but despite all that he wants to fucking live. That's fucking beautiful
@@jonaspacina see, you keep hoping, i was like you, i thought"maybe one day humans can understand each other." But that was no more than stupid hope. Keep hoping and see where will it get you, or take action, learn from my mistakes
If you haven’t watched the show I recommend it highly. Even if anime isn’t your thing I still strongly recommend it. Very accurate depictions of mental illness, and a really thought provoking story. 10/10 and I’m not even a weeb
@@furiousape7717 I have Evangelion on my watch list and will definitely binge it when my exams end. I saw the first 6 episodes and really liked it. I will definitely finish it. Thanks!
the anime ending is my favorite ending to any work of art I've seen thus far, and honestly I have found more closure in the last 2 episodes of the show than I've had during many years of medication and therapy and I'm grateful for that
@@Njanshalu When I first saw it I was VERY confused but know I get it. After many years. Ironic I hated Shinji when I first saw Eva but now I see my past self in him. Escapism into music/anime, very bad depression, really fuckedup relationships as I look back now. Im glad that this is all in the past
"Thank you to my father,"
"Goodbye to my mother."
"And to all the children,"
"Congratulations."
@@user-kj8hg all the children of the world who succeed to survive the hard times of the teenage years, and who become adults.
Aww, did Anno's mother die? Poor guy. What a touching ending.

Yeah, actually shinji just kind of killed all of them
@@Loqueteron not really though
Jojos Stupid Adventure He did not, you saying this tells me you did not pay attention to the show at all
Wait,I thought NGE Shinji didn't reject instrumentality
pretty messed up when you realize Shinji just turned everyone into orange juice.
Bo Ning Ma eh, they can be dejuiced
Bo Ning Ma They can be un-juiced, but only if they truly want to be unjuiced.
I imagine most of them will become un-juiced. Think about it. Shinji and Asuka, two of the most self-loathing and damaged characters in the series decided that they could face the pain of individual existence, so I imagine most of humanity will decide the same thing.
No, he was the one to choose that they can reassemble themselves from LCL
He rejected instrumentality so they'll eventually reform

One more people here to agree with you Rino :)
Omedetou
Did you not cry during Up
Lmao
They forgot to say "congratulations to all the people who survive this show"
Hahahah
I saw this when i was 13 years old and i was going through a bad moment, after this scene i immediately started crying
this is the best ending, solely because Shinji smiled. he never once did in the End of Evangelion.
Or.. Maybe he did. But u forgot it. In the early episodes of the series maybe
yeah, didn't seem to be as happy as this tho
also, i was talking about the end of evangelion tho
Shinji is shown smiling in End of Evangelion when he's shouting "You betrayed me, you betrayed my feelings!" Definitely wasn't smiling in the moment, but they showed that shot anyway.
He was smiling when he saw Kaworu in EoE , when the spear covered the Eva
The only two characters to die by gunshot are the only two characters who have clear skies behind them in this scene.

Kensuke is the most powerful character because he’s the only one who didnt say “Congratulations”
How about PenPen
He was the 4th, but was hijacked by an angel
PenPen said congratulations in penguin language or some shit idk
And now Chadsuke tapped Asuka
and he's the only one who's mentally stable
honestly i find it ironic that a show many people consider to make people depressed helped me cope with my anxiety, in particular this scene.
It’s because it was made for depressed people. If you are a happy camper and watch sad trauma robot show you’ll probably hate it
I find it really relatable and this scene was really made for me lol

Julia Michaelis Kaworu: right I’m gonna make this lad love me, then I’m gonna fuckin die.
The sad reason he didn't appear because he's barely shown in the entire anime (one episode or two) despite being an important character.

It's Shinji's birthday! Congratulations!
6/6/2001 is his birth date.
So.. He is a millennial huh?
That's why he has a problematic psychological condition.
